The closest I have come to envisioning one is to say that a man would prostitute his four year old son for gain. But this carries an implication of ruthlessness rather than weakness and the sense that engaging in sex is evil does not apply to him as a man because he is male but aises from the transgression of promoting sex with a child.<br /><br />We need another term to indicate that someone will do anything for gain.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06688383312843029052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119943.post-8527637110623749372010-10-11T19:37:50.760-07:002010-10-11T19:37:50.760-07:00Welcome back even it's just a visit.

Brown demonstrates the same disease common to "progressives." They are not really progressive and good only at poking fun at Republican and Rahm. <br /><br />I have fond memories of the gov when I lived in California.

I kept waiting for it to be used as a counter to Whitman and it never happen. Why didn’t his people latch on to Bell and Vernon and counter that to Whitman?<br /> <br />In the meantime, my 11-year-old daughter laughs uncontrollably when Whitman commercials come on, especially the one that is like a power point and says FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL next to Brown’s picture.The Fabulous Kitty Glendowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12259506108044329136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119943.post-6370016593491550072010-10-10T21:48:44.828-07:002010-10-10T21:48:44.828-07:00http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/2010-09-22-s...http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/2010-09-22-sexist-insults-female-politicians_N.htm?csp=24<br /><br />Bookmark it, I did!<br /><br />Sexist slurs have a demonstratable negative impact on perceptions of a female politician's candidacy, with no regard for her actual performance. There is no reason to make racist slurs about a politician, and expect that to be tolerated. How about if we said a Jewish politician was "jewing" his constituents?<br /><br />PS, the is the first time, like ever, I've been able to get my Wordpress account to work, when bloggers require visitors to log in to comment. I understand people are worried about trolls, but I can't be the only one who has difficulty.<br /><br />Usually the only time I can comment is when the blog owner has enable the option for visitors to fill in the info manually.
